These beautiful gold plated earrings adorned with amazing pyrite gemstones and grey pearls were designed by a Jerusalem artist to resemble a 2,000 year old earring that was discovered at the Givati Parking Lot Excavation at the entrance to the City of David.

The piece is part of the Queen Helene jewelry collection, which integrates colored gemstones into the original design of the jewelry worn by the aristocracy of the Second Temple period.

The City of David collection is a unique and exquisite line of artwork based on the actual discoveries made in the City of David's famous archaeological excavations, which are uncovering the history and culture of Jerusalem dating back thousands of years. Each piece comes with its own story of the archaeological find that inspired the design, and which enables you to connect the rich past of ancient Jerusalem with the present day beauty of these original works of art.
